[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The day was a the first day when I was armed with my newly owned Canon 400 5.6L lens. I noticed this Tern was catching fish from a small water body in Bannerghatta National Park, Bangalore. These species are fast like a jet plane in flight. Thanks to Canon Prime I could manage a flight shot of this beautiful bird.

beautiful background.
i`m really bored of green or blue backgrounds of the bird pictures. nice to see something different.

i think that this picture can improve by software exposure compensation. it is to darky.
to recover highlights detail on the bird you can make 2 copies with different exposures and combine them using a layer mask .

I have gone through the gallery of TN once more to find that beautiful picture that i had seen yesterday! This is a superb and fantastic picture, Neloy, one of the most beautiful on this site. The light is a dream, the bird with its reflection on the water is superb and sharp, what a picture. You sure made a great use of your new camera and I have to say that this "painting" is really inspired and inspiring. A beauty to contemplate. Thank you!

Hi Neloy,

For first day first shot [new lens]its a great picture, I like the bird in action and also the reflection captured sharply too.I think you can still improve the picture on photo shop. TFS.

You should send such pictures to magazines - I can see it on the cover of natl geographic!!
